Which is the preferred type of tea in the United States?

America's favorite kind is black tea, which accounts for more than half of all tea consumed in the country. Fruit and herbal tea, which accounts for just over a quarter of U.S. tea consumption, is second on the list. But neither has managed to grow in recent years—fruit and herbal tea consumption has risen by 7 percent in the U.S. since 2000, while black tea consumption has fallen by nearly 2.5 percent over the same period.
